We Live In Nanjing

  Chapter 47 Stockings for Doomsday Survival

  First, keep your hands steady.

Pinellia took a deep breath, pushing the bow with the left hand, and pulling the string with the right. As the oak bow arm slightly bends, the longbow is stretched to the degree of arm and a half, and then fixed, the tight bow arm and bowstring have huge accumulations. The elastic potential energy, which forms a fragile balance with the girl's arm and shoulder, is on the verge of breaking out.

   Pinellia's sight fell along the arrow shaft into the grass across the road. She heard movement in the grass, which was a shrill, dog-like bark.

  That is a muntjac.

  Muntjac is very common in Nanjing. It is a small deer that is often active at night and occasionally appears during the day. Compared with the huge red deer, the muntjac is much easier to hunt.

  This is a good source of meat.

  The muntjac has three good points. It is light and tender and will fall down after a shot.

Pinellia uses the index and middle fingers to hook the bowstring. The tight bowstring is stuck in the groove on the tail of the arrow. The left shoulder is facing forward and the right shoulder is facing backward. Not stiff, stable but not stiff, with shoulders stretched out, Banxia is undoubtedly a good student. Her archery level is now the best in the world.

The girl is at least 20 meters away from her prey. She knows how to hide her whereabouts and smell. The muntjac is a very timid animal. It will run away immediately when there is wind and grass, so Pinellia hides behind a big tree. , The wild weeds could not reach the girl's waist, and the breeze was blowing from the front, here is the downwind, so the prey could not smell her.

  Second point, you still have to keep your hands steady.

  The emerald bushes moved "簌簌", and the girl held her breath. She saw a pair of erect brown-yellow ears emerging from the lush green leaves.

Immediately afterwards, its forehead was also exposed. There was a black "V" pattern on the fur on the forehead, and two black painted eyes. Pinellia recognized that it was a female deer, because the top of the male's head There are sharp corners.

  The third point, your hands must be steady.

  There is only one chance.

  The arrow from the string can’t look back. If it misses the shot, it will startle the snake. For a vigilant creature like the muntjac, if the first arrow misses it, there will be no chance to shoot the second one.

  It drilled into the lush meadow, and the gods could not find it.

In the tenth year after the disappearance of human beings, cities have become natural landscapes that grow from the ground. The erosion ability of nature is far more powerful than anyone imagined. In only ten years, human buildings can become animals. For the creatures who were born in this era, the city is a part of the naturally existing world. Just like the forest, desert, mountains and plains, it is just a special landform.

In the fifteenth year after the disappearance of human beings, the city has become one of the most diverse areas in the biosphere. The slower the stronger, the germinated seeds can break the concrete, and any place that can shine into the sun and fall into the rain will be vitalized. Tenacious weeds quickly occupy, and then small rodents will get in, and predators who feed on rodents will follow. The high-rise buildings built by humans provide animals with unprecedented three-dimensional living space. Quickly adapted to the environment, leopards, cats that are good at climbing, learned to set up ambushes on tall buildings or viaducts. They are cruel and clever predators. They once brought a lot of trouble to Pinellia.

  This is a wild world after all.

  In the food chain, all creatures play nothing more than two roles, either prey or hunter. The natural world is both cruel and bloody. In the most advanced era of human civilization, people often ignore this, because human beings have been out of prey for too long, and they have not seen **** residues of the same kind left after being eaten for a long time.

   Pinellia took aim.

  Go down this arrow and the female muntjac will die.

After killing the prey, Pinellia will process it on the spot, peel off the fur, remove the internal organs, and then cut a few pieces of the best meat from the back or thighs to take away. She will not take the entire prey back, which is very troublesome. Because the remaining visceral fur has to be transported to a long distance and discarded again, so as not to attract some ferocious scavengers.

  For safety reasons, Pinellia never hunts within three kilometers of her residence.

  Suddenly the bushes began to move "簌簌" again.

   Banxia is startled.

  She heard the voice of the second muntjac, which was smaller and faint.

Soon a small deer head came out of the grass, with light yellow soft fur, erect ears, **** eyes, and two small bulges on the top of the head. Its size was less than the previous one. It’s half of the size, probably a small male deer, which hasn’t grown up yet.

  This is a female Muntjac with a cub on its head.

  Banxia opened her bow and aimed the arrow at the small end.

  Small ones are more delicious, and the meat is more tender.

   Killed and brought it back to roast and eat. I haven't eaten barbecue for a long time. I think about it. Pinellia released her finger and the bowstring suddenly rebounded.

In the sound of    breaking through the air, the sharp arrow left the string and traversed a distance of 20 meters in a thunderous manner, and nailed it to the foot of the young deer.

The young and old were dumbfounded. They turned their heads and stared at the wooden arrows nailed in the grass. The air was silent for a second. Then their bodies jumped up like springs, panicked and ran away, and disappeared in the grass. Up.

   Pinellia stood on tiptoe, pulled the strap of the backpack, raised his hand to build a pergola, and looked at the distance for a moment when a bird was startled.

  Run really fast.

  The girl walked slowly over, pulled up the arrow on the ground, and stuffed it into the quiver behind.

   "Hands are born." Pinellia scratched her head, "Unlucky, the flesh on the lips is flying away."

  She wondered how to go back to practice her archery target.

   It’s fine, if you can’t hit it, you can’t hit it. Banxia stretched a lazy waist.

   took out his pocket watch from his pocket and glanced at the time. It was three thirty in the afternoon.

  This is the end of today’s hunting. It’s time to see if the traps and traps have been harvested.

  The girl got out of the grass and returned to the wide road. She took off her long-sleeved jacket, put it on her shoulders, and wiped the sweat from her face and neck.

  This kind of scorching ghost weather, you have to wear a long coat, which is really torture.

  You can't wear it without wearing it. There are everything in the grass, there are terrible foreign peppers, and even more terrible dry leeches. These things are enough to rub the skin.

The teacher said that the hot pepper is the larva of the green thorn moth. This ghost can occasionally be seen under the leaves of the plane tree. There are several under the shady leaves. They are all green and covered in thorns. They are in clusters. Pinellia is not afraid of caterpillars. , But I hate this thing very much. The exposed skin will become red and swollen when touched. It hurts people want to chop their hands. It's hard to tell which sting person is more painful than a paederus.

Dry leeches are not common at ordinary times, but they will suddenly appear after the rain. I don’t know where they came from in Pinellia. Can't pull it off.

  Doomsday survival stocks stockings, which are important supplies, put on your head and hands when drilling a meadow.

  At six o'clock in the afternoon of the same day.

  The black moon is about to rise, it's time for Banxia to go back.

  She looked around the traps and traps she set up, and found nothing unexpectedly.

  It seems that nothing was caught today, so let’s go hunting tomorrow.

  Banxia stepped into the gate of Meihua Villa, carrying a backpack with bows and arrows, humming old songs in his mouth, and walking on the small roads in the community.

  The girl suddenly got terrified.

  After a pause, she drew her pistol and turned to aim at it almost without thinking.

  She felt it again.

  Something is staring at yourself.

Her eyes were crazy and bloody, like sharp cracked canines. Pinellia intuitively thought it was a terrible predator, but she couldn't find where it was. Nothing happened.

  Holding her breath, Pinellia slowly backed away step by step and walked back into the small door of the high-voltage power grid. She held the gun in one hand and pointed to the front, while the other hand closed the grid door.

  She kept backing into the unit door, flipped the switch on the wall, sparks splashed.

  After doing all this, the girl slowly sat down against the wall, gasping for breath, she touched her clothes, she was in cold sweat.
